Congratulations on your marriage and on your weight loss! Both are huge and life changing! Be proud of yourself! Keep up the good work so that you can keep that weight off! Enjoy your first year of marriage as newlyweds, and all the years to come!

You are an inspiration! I am happy that you guys had such a nice cruise/honeymoon......What a wonderful celebration.....Enjoy all those clothes, shopping, races, etc.....You have opened up a new world for yourself! Live the dream!

Now, a word of advice.....Keep maintaining your weight...and don't get complacent.....The weight WILL gradually creep up if you don't WORK at maintenance....I found this out the hard way! Stress and Life can sometimes make weight management tough.....Be one step ahead.....I am dealing with the aftermath right now!!

Well, where to start. Let’s start with the biggest thing. I’m MARRIED! I’m now Mrs. Chris Davis! The day finally came and passed. It was beautiful and perfect. Everything about the wedding was absolutely more than I could have asked for. Friends, family, fun, and the love of my life. I could not have asked for more. Then we left for a fantastic honeymoon cruise to the Bahamas! Neither one of us had ever been on a cruise or ever seen water that beautifully crystal clear. It was simply amazing!

The next *huge* piece of news. I’ve lost 98 lbs!!! I still can’t believe it. It’s almost like a good dream that I’m afraid I will wake up from. I’ve bought new clothes so many times I don’t remember what I have in my wardrobe and half of it doesn’t fit anymore (because it’s all too big!). I’m so much more happy and active than I have ever been in my life and boy it feels good. Most days I feel like I can get up and tackle the world, instead of the other way around. It’s amazing the self-confidence and happiness that a “better you” can bring.

In other news, my husband and I have started looking for and running 5k’s. We recently ran the Glow Run where you run at night and they spray you with glowing paint. We had such a good time. We are now looking forward to the Color Run August 3rd in Atlanta! We have even managed to gather a couple more people to go with us!

Yes, life is good my friends and I can only hope that it gets better from here!
